Tunisia VS Japan

Tunisia VS Japan Tunisia, ranked 36th in the world, has a total team value of only 67 million euros. After a 1 - 5 drubbing in the first round, their goal difference dropped to -4, leading to the sacking of the head coach. Renard took over in a crisis and has only had a few days to work with the team, so there's a serious lack of tactical understanding. The team mainly plays a 5 - 4 - 1 deep - defensive formation, relying on Hannibal for single - point counter - attacks and physical confrontations to disrupt the opponents' rhythm. However, their defense suffers a significant drop in physical strength in the second half, and there are huge loopholes in the wing defense. They will be eliminated after this game and can only aim for a draw. On the other hand, Japan, ranked 18th in the world, has a total value of over 230 million euros. All 23 players play in European leagues. In the first round, they drew 2 - 2 with the Netherlands, showing great resilience under pressure. A win will give them a firm grip on the initiative to advance. Japan is facing the absence of key players like Kubo Takefusa and Endo Wataru, which has weakened their wing - breaking ability. Nevertheless, the passing and controlling system built by Kamada Daichi, Doan Rin and Ueda Kiyotaka remains intact. Their short - range penetration and flanking runs can break through a compact defense. Visit Nowgoal.net to watch World Cup 2026 livescore & free live football streaming
